How the Coy Gang Ia Working.

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal
The Republican party may prepare to meet the
fact that the Coy men are making desperate
effort to carry the city election. Sunday is used
to find the colored men and others who are en-
ployed during the week. They go from house
to house in gangs, selected for the special work
of each locality. The men who can exert the
most influence on the parties to be visited ara
selected with great care. We saw several of
these squads yesterday earnestly entreating
colorsd men TO vote down the who will, by
his rigorous temperance notions, drive enter

English and American Coaches Compared.
1t is quite evident that the English people are
drifting toward the American style of passenger
coach, although still clineng to some OF their
old fogy ideas. London Life, in q recent issue,
says: There are some objections. doubt, to
the adoption Of the American railway system in
this country. In America, railway carriages
all of one class. that a passenger
walk from end to end Of the train and choose
his seat in any part Of it But some modifca-
tion of this plan might be adopted. All carri-
ages of one class, for example might DO COM
municating or ut the worst gangway might
be constructed from end TO end of each indiyid-
nal carriage. il Is true that American cars,
having each only one exit. do not empty them
selves as quickly as En- elish carriages. On the
Dtber hand, there is no mad rushing about after
Brsts as an American train 10 about to start;
the passengers get on board, AS they call it, any
where. and find their places after the train has
started And there 10 this further advantage
attaching to the American system, that
are overcr DIVIDED while others are empty; the
passe myers distribute themselves evenly along

Railroadinr in Mexico.

The expenses Of railroading in the hot eli
mate of Mexico are great Wooden ties have
but a short life, cracking in the dry season
and rotting during the rainy months; bridge
timbers and piles also wear out rapidly.
Freight cars must be painted frequently TO
prevent drying and cracking, and even the
substantial Pullman cars shriyel under this
exposure. Fuel constitutes a large item OF
outlay Mesquite roots are burned on the
Central road; pine cut along its route is used
on the Interoceanic, and the Vera Cruz COM
pany feeds its engines on coal blocks that are
brought from Wales as ballast The decay OF
ties will in time necessitate q serious outlay
ON the Central road, for wooden sleepers cost
here 81 each. 1t is evident that iron ties are
a necessity in Mexico, and they are just COM
ing into use The climate tends TO preserve
the rails and iron bridges, provided the latter
escape the torrents of the rainy season.
Engineers command better wages here than
they do in the United States, for only that
inducement brings them here. The general
stats of the road are also well paid, but the
section hands, who are poems, work for small
wages. The natural and proper tendency on
all the roads is to employ Mexicans when the
right men can be obtained. This policy
helps TO protect the property of outside cor
porations doing business here.-Springfeld

all good citizens devoutly hope 1t never may.
A visitor to New York may see hansoms and
tailor made gowns and other English limo

does see it. Nevertheless New York gets up
some very fair fogs, II the expression may lie
used Those who patr0nize the many ferries
rapidly learn the discomfort Of fog.
The fogs Of New York are Of several kinds.
In the winter, when the floating Ice on the
water is melting, there is apt to arise dense,
white fog, which usually appears before
dawn and remains all day. Then there is the
intermittent fog, which will suddenly come
on in the morning and lifts before noon. A
fog will occasionally come on without warn
ing late in the afternoon. The rivers and
bay are crowded with craft Of all kinds,
which are caught quite Unexpectedly in dis
agreeable predicament. No more trustworthy

pilots Of New York, and accidents are re-

Hnw Death NAV Como.

As the great Psychologist Bichat observed
many years ago, death may come at last in
any one of three different ways: By failure
of the heart, the lungs or the brain. The
first named is, in fact, the one that always
shows that life is extinct So long as the
heart keeps going, the circulation is kept up,
and all parts are nourished. When breathing
ceases no more oxygen can reach the blood,
and the latter no longer nourishes any part
as it should; the brain no longer sends its in
fuence to the heart, and it has no further in
centive 10 keep on working. If injury TO the
brain should happen, or some poison interfere
with the outflow OF nerve force, then the
lungs no longer Ia o in fresh air, and the
heart ceases its work. So, finally, all modes
of death result in the cessation of the heart
beats, and the life of the body stops within
two or three minutes after complete failure Of
this great force-pump TO continue its action.

SOME FACTS Foa vgeeTARIANs.
Physic Condition OF Flesh Eaters-Flesb
Eating Habits OF the Civilized World

Eating Habits of the Civilized World.
A vegetable diet is 400 or 5OOper cent cheap
erthan the same amount Of food derived from
the flesh Of animals
The animals which for power OF endurance
and rapidity of motion are valued for our
service derive the whole of their strength and
nutriment from the vegetable kingdom; such
are the horse, the camel, the elephant.
The physical condition of many flesh eaters
shows that the blood itself is loaded with i'm
purities and in a state Of decomposition, and
that persons whose blood is in this impure
state are liable, on very slight exposure, chill,
etc. to be attacked with dangerous illness.
That this condition is caused by flesh eating IS
shown from the fact that it is quickly changed
by the adoption Of vegetable diet.
The flesh eating habits of the so-called civ
ilized world render necessary the setting
apart of whole class Of men for the per-
Torrance of the degrading and brutalizing
Office of slaughtering animals for food
Were it not for the large quantities of veg
etables consumed by flesh eaters disease would
ensue in every case. Vegetables supply the
salts Of the blood.
The peasantry Of all nations abstain from
animal food-wholly or in part-from neces-
sity. Their vigor is greater than that of any
other class in every country.
Meat IS the most costly Of all foods, and
among civilized races the struggle for life
RACES to so fearful an extent that human
beings shorten life by the effort they make to
save it
The average age Of man should be cent
ury. The majority of human beings die before
they are half as old. The longest lived are
those who feed on cereals
Vegetarian diet, by contributing TO the
physical health of man, improves likewise his
moral condition, besides conducting in no
small degree to the healthy development of
the intellectual faculties; since 1t must nat
urally follow that by rendering the instru-
ment clear and pure, the acts of life will be
materially elevated, also being identified with
that which is clear and pure.-Laura c. Hol-
loway in "Buddhists' Diet Book
